Hello Autumn!

Autumn, the time people either love or hate. The idea of letting go of you t shirts and shorts for another year can be unbareable, but if I'm honest, Autumn is my fave time. So many exciting things to look forward to, and an excuse to do so many things that you can't get away with in the Summer time.

Let's talk "non beauty" first. 

Say goodbye to lettuce, cucumber and tomato and say hello to brownies, cakes, hot chocolate, (the better foods). This time of year is perfect for doing a bit of baking of you favourite foods to share with the family. (Just a suggestion, you can eat it all yourself!) 

But one of my favourite things of Autumn is sitting infront of the tv at 5:00, watching wintery films, drinking a cup of tea and watching the leaves fall. Can't picture anything better. 

This is the season for christmas markets, and grabbing all your pressies before the last minute rush. 

If this doesn't make you excited, then just picture CHRISTMAS!

Beauty time.

Autumn, the time to look and feel sparkly and beautiful. 

When I think of beauty and cold weather, I instantly think, baths. Summer is a very much wash and go for me, so it's nice to enjoy my "wash" time in the chillier months, maybe add in a sneaky lush bath bomb and a scented candle, whilst you sip on your hot chocolate. 

I always feel in the Summer time, everyone wears the fruity and floral fragrances, but I tend to enjoy the woody and spicy scents in autumn and winter, I also love vanilla. One of my favourite budget perfumes and body sprays are "Body Shop" fragrances and mists. I LOVE the honeymania one, but Body Shop bring in their christmas scents very soon, and I am a massive fan of their gingerbread scent. Makes me shiver just thinking of it. 

My last favourite beauty thing about Autumn is very basic, dark colours. I wear plummy, cranberry shades on my nails and lips, as I think it suits my Autumn wardrobe better. I also love a bit of a smokey eye and darker blusher.

All of my favourite things about Autumn, put together, make me very happy and excited. Darker evenings are the perfect excuse to watch a film earlier than usual, and colder days DO mean you can have a hot chocolate. Don't feel guilty, you have reasons for it. 

I hope this made you feel a bit better about the leaves turning and having to put on a coat.

Love you all and please feel free to tell me a bit about your fave autumn things xxx <3
